MAYBE not historically accurate look, however, I used some of that textured "stone" spray paint. Just a Walmart rattle can spray paint that has a fine/medium texture to it~ than I sprayed OD over it. Turned out really nice.
The pot isn’t as deep and the front of the dome isn’t as high. It slopes more gradually than the WW2 m1. It’s kind of hard to tell until you put them side by side. Great work though. Easy to see why they’d use them in ww2 films.
Those Chinese helmets were the same ones used in the movie Hacksaw Ridge
Yup, threw me off so much while watching that movie
I'd say it seems like a good idea if you want something custom, or a project, and don't want to modify a historical piece.
This is interesting. I have a roached out vietnam helmet i plan to do this with. Id love to see your other helmets.
Good luck with yours! I’ll have to do a video on my other helmets sometime.

You done a good job on a china made M1 to make it look real ww2
Tbh you deserve more than 35 subs
how do you only have 69 subs you deserve more

Unfortunately they copied an 60s production M1 rather than a WW2 example which is shaped differently!🙄
What sewing machine are you using?🤔

Nice dude I subscribed to your channel
they look quite good are they the right material on the helmet itself?
@@Tristonia2 I’m not sure, I guess I could try shooting at it.
I tried doing this but the paint I used was horribly inaccurate but when i got the paint it looked like the accurate color.
Sadly...not enough texture ! You should have used much more cork !
What sewing machine did you use? Ive looked into bar tack specific machines but too expensive!🙄

@@robertmunoz7543 I just used a regular sewing machine with a denim/ upholstery needle on a zig zag setting.
@@WarQualityReviews Didn't know if It needed the torque like industrial machines to sew canvas?🤔
Jman
can these stop shrapnel?
@@aaronsoriano2421 might be worth a test!
Que usas como textura? que material es? Gracias
It’s ground cork
@@WarQualityReviews me sorprende que sea corcho!! pensé que era algo más sólido, hierro o arena! Gracias!!
No, they’re shit …!
